    Likely they are referring to birds being in a monophyletic clade alongside dinos, but by that logic, humans are monkeys.

    I mean we pretty much are. Aside from going hairless and standing upright how much different are we really?

    Computers are further removed from rocks than a dinosaur is from a mamal.

      Hehe computers are not animals or vegetables so…

      It’s metal + plastic.

      Just like dinos and birbs have feathers.

      Unless we say that the origin of things is not necessarily the sum total explanation of what they are.
